Developer Reading List: The Must-Have Books for JavaScript

Developer Reading List: The Must-Have Books for JavaScript

In this series of slides, I go through the true "must have" books for the language that is seemingly becoming universally adopted by communities of all kinds: mobile apps, Web, Windows 8, and even server-side development. The way I've set this up is to list the two best introductory tutorials, two best advanced tutorials, two specialized tutorials, two best books on JavaScript performance, and two others on using JavaScript with Windows8.

If I've missed any that you think are especially worthwhile, please add them in the comments.
